love potion on hold as i can see how it goes when GiGa grows his out,
dont worry i got the ww x skunk growing, planted some a few days back and they just sprouted,
@miwa, i go on height really mate, i flip to flower around week 6 or 1ft tall, cfls keep the nodes very tight early on but as the plant gets bigger it sorts itself out, the other option would be to put it out in open daylight near a window, that will make it stretch a little, or raise the cfls a few more inches, cfls are great for keeping plants nice and bushy, pretty much get nodes on top of nodes
@dhama, got 2 growing mate, i wonder what its going to be called when it is released for sale, sounds like it could be an interesting strain.
i might not need to plant anymore seeds, for the last 2 weeks ive been using paper towel method as i had real low germ rates with the gdp male cross purple cheese auto and lower rates with the a47 x uk cherry cheese fem pollen cross with auto purple cheese,
so i through 10 seeds in to paper towel to check germination rates, now i soaked them about 10 to 14 days ago, yesterday they still had not sprouted, i went out today and was going to throw them out if they did not germ, i just checked and so far 2 have sprouted and i just planted them, so thats gdp male cross with purple cheese auto now growing, hoepfully more will germ over the next few days, but for some reason the seeds are like stones, so hard once i scuffed them they was black like coal, i thought maybe the gdp and an auto was not a good cross, but lets just hope these seeds where a pain to germ because their going to turn into something good,
now i just need a male and female from the gdp x purple cheese auto and cross them with each other so i can start working with the strain and cross the best pheno types from the bunch, so will be a while but i should have a pretty decent strain, im hoping the gdp genetics and the purple cheese will make a very nice plant, but ill guess ill find out in the next 3 or 4 months.
so in veg i now got the following
1x jack flash fem.
3 x gdp male cross auto purple cheese fem,
1 x auto bubble fem,
2 x white widow x skunk#1
1 x dragons breath fem
1 x mazar x white rino fem
1 x sour diesel fem
1 x sensi star fem thats 3 weeks old and pretty big, will be a nice plant once its been under hps for a few weeks of veg
2 x clones not rooted yet but both will be used for 2ltr dwc hempies if they root,
2 x kc45 auto seedlings
1 x kc45 male auto in flower
i best not get planthing anymore for a few weeks, i will soon run out of room but some are a couple of weeks older than other so hopefully i can do a staggered harvest and ill have the hps on veg schedule but the plants i want to flower off early will be taken out the veg room and placed in a dark place for their 12-12 cycle
so i wont be planting anything else for 2 or 3 weeks or even not till i harvest the plants in flower, ill be planting the cotton candy next though as its a really nice strain that ive grown before, its a strain that herbie was giving away a while back so he must of got another batch due to buyers asking for that strain again
but for now i got plenty going on, cant wait to harvest this lot i got in flower then after the next round of plants ill cut my numbers down and go for bigger plants or might even go for a 3ft by 3ft scrog with 2 plants
